Another quilt finished!

I tell ya, I'm on a roll! My work colleague is due a baby next week (and he really IS arriving next Wednesday - she's having a medical section) and I made the Sherbert Pips baby quilt for her first child a few years ago. Some weeks ago Trudi was having a destash of fabrics on Instagram and she had a bundle of Bluebird Park that was perfect. So I bought it, added the brown and yellow fat quarters from my own stash and got cutting!

Then came the hunt for backing. I thought I might need to buy some when I found a length of an Art Gallery print from Dee. Hmm. That might do...

...it was perfect!! Always a joy to find your presents in my stash dear friend! I quilted a quarter of an inch from each seam so it's nice and sturdy for lotsa washing.

And then I found the perfectperfectperfect binding. Who knows what I bought it for but I do love a stripey binding so it was maybe a sale purchase. And I machine bound it again - I could get to like it, you know.

Photobomb! Fully cat tested. It's okay, the new baby home is also feline occupied. *g*

So another tick on my list! I made cushions at the weekend for my bed to match the new NaturalBlues quilt and started a holiday skirt last night. Rolling rolling rolling!!!
